Carrie is pissed, again

I hope they stopped the victims and explained what they were doing. That could screw someone up.

Me? I'd be looking for the wires. It would never occur to me that it wasn't a trick. Although it may take me a while to figure out the mechanism.

I'd either start laughing, or start clapping. If my wife was with me, she'd be scared sh1tless, because she believes in ...well...what a lot of others believe in. And I wouldn't be happy about her being scared.

I'd wonder why they were putting on the stunt. The chairs and tables moving were well done.

Thanks

Same here i would laugh and my wife would probably run. Knowing her
she would try and drag me with her.

However with that said, have you ever been in a crowd and some one gets scared?
Its pretty infectious. I guess that applies fairly universal for all the strong emotions.

it might even be how mobs and what not get started.

I'm glad you brought this up. Yes, if I see someone scared, my adrenalin kicks in like anyone else. I don't think we can control that. If everyone is running, I may run with them, assuming that they know something I don't...

Mobs? I don't know. Violence is a different reaction. Breaking windows, looting, beating people up? I think, in a mob (or riot) that you just think you can get away with it because everyone around you is acting the same.

I just know that, if I saw this scene in a coffee shop, it would never occur to me that someone really had these abilities. I don't think I would run. I know I would be curious as to how it was done.

And if I had reason to believe it was real? I would be fascinated.

Now if she pulled out a gun? Then, I would run. Nothing fascinating about that.

Thanks

Funny you mention gun, when ever I see these type of videos
I always wonder how nobody gets ganked or shot or beat down.

And I'm amazed that his has never occurred to the people putting on the stunt.
"Ganked"?

In the fear as everyone panicked, I'd pick up and chair, throw it through the window and start a riot.

Then I'd casually sneak behind the counter and make myself one of those nice ice coffee things with lots of cream on top.

Some people are saying that the "real" customers at the counter are actually actors as well.

I disagree--I think the customers at the counter and their reactions are real.

Usually on these deals they shoot a ton more footage than is used--my guess is a lot of people started laughing as you said.

In any case, over 3 million views in one day is really impressive.

Thanks
